Are there any options to remove either the window border or the extra -[]x buttons?

Hi Tiffany (-:

I don't think you can get rid of the title bar buttons of the child windows, because XnView is a multiple document interface (MDI) application.
However, you can hide the menubar altogether by adding MenuBar=1 to the [Hidden] section of your xnview.ini file.

When enabled, XnView hides the menu bar.
Value: Boolean (1/0), disabled by default

FYI: There's a pending request for a chrome-less mode in XnViewMP: Windows interface inconsistencies

Thanks for the reply. I imagine if you just wanted to hide the border couldn't you just use this?:

Code: Select all

WinSet, Style, -0xC40000, A

It would look something like this:

Tested it via an AHK script:

Code: Select all

#SingleInstance Force
#Persistent

SetTimer XnView, 5000
Return

XnView:
   WinGet IDs, List, ahk_class XmainClass
   Loop %IDs%
   {
      ID := IDs%A_Index%
      If ID not in %Old_IDs%
      {
         WinActivate ahk_id %ID%
         	WinSet, Style, -0xC40000, A
	WinActivate, A
      }
      New_IDs .= ID ","
   }
   StringTrimRight Old_IDs, New_IDs, 1
   New_IDs =
Return

Seems like that specific set of -[]x stuff only affects that specific picture though, like if you used tabs or something I guess.

I see you know your stuff

On 2nd thought, this probably has to do with the two different fullscreen modes of XnView Classic:

[quote="Olivier_G (Re: Lack of "technical transparency")"]First, my point of view on Browser's fullscreen ("fullscreen lite") vs Viewer's fullscreen ("MDI fullscreen"): improve and use MDI as mainstream (keep "lite fullscreen" only for some 'dual monitor' configurations).[/quote]
